What have you done to your 5th Gen 4Runner today?

What is it.......?

 

You just have to do it! I know it’s insane price.
Do it! You won’t regret it

 

Check out the aftermarket grill from Trail Standard Offroad if you want to save a little money. Still expensive for what it is but i think it really makes a different to the front end. I bought their grille with letters and no regrets! the only difference is the letters are individual and you put them on yourselves. I am actually rocking it blank right now and really like it so far. Will probably black the letters out and put them on later.

Yeah I’ve looked at that but when I priced them both out it was only like 100 dollars more to the oem one. So I just didn’t get either yet.

 

Now you need to black out your front valance.

 

That is next on my list as well

 

First trip to cabin towing the ATV.

Question, you guys doing exhaust relocation to cancel out the fact that our exhaust hangs below the cross member?

 

Today made a left/right baffle cut, so that the car tires will not rub.

 

Interesting wheels...

 

There are countless threads on this very subject. There is also this https://www.urdusa.com/product/urd-off-road-y-pipe-for-2003-4runner-v6/

 

Sorry, must have entered the wrong keywords in my search. Thx for the help!

Edit: that pipe is sweet, but I wanna drive my runner on the street.

 

lol so drive it on the street! The rear cats are after the last o2 sensor. You won't have any check engine lights or inspection issues unless your station looks for the 2nd cats and knows they're supposed to be there and cares enough to bust your balls about it. You are in tree hugger socal so it's very likely that'll happen lol

 

Thats why I cant have that system, there are other ways I have found through tacoma world as 2nd gen tacomas have similar issues with exhaust rerouting. I was totally sold on that pipe, more power, less restrictive, safely tucked up there, till I read not street legal. I could probably find a place in the hood that will do it for me, but its not high on my priority list since I have my 1st gen tacoma built out to play in the rocks. This is my daily, but will slowly be modified cause i cant help myslef

 

Did you do the 76" x 49" rack or the larger one? Do you have a sunroof?

 

Just got the rails with removable steps put on...

 

Just had a long day of ceramic coating the Runner. But it’ll be worth it!

 

Nice! How did you install the amber/raptor lights? Inside or outside the grill?

 

Inside the grill

 

WOW..! That is looking sharp.!

 

Updated photo a day after curing. Definitely brings out the metallic in the paint.

 

General spiffyness...

 

What product did you use and do you think it's any better than a high quality commercial grade wax?

 

I generally do wash, clay, wash again, dry, and I personally love Meguiar's #26 yellow paste wax. I may give this a shot for the spring detail though. Any benefit in waxing over the ceramic?
